Apparent Contradictions Authority Church Denominations Church Involvement ... Origins Of Christianity Click here for a printable version of this question. Why are there so many Christian denominations? Divisions in the church go back to the first century. In his first letter to the Corinthians, the apostle Paul lamented that strife and divisions had resulted in some saying, "I am of Paul," and another, "I am of Apollos" ( 1 Corinthians 3:3 Denominations, which could be called "formalized division," began a little later in the Apostolic Church, when orthodox believers defended the teaching of the apostles against the distortion of the gospel with false teachings based on pagan or Jewish traditions. Eventually the true church was firmly established on a foundation of essential doctrinal truth: belief in the deity of Christ and the Trinity, and acceptance of the established Canon of Scripture. This universal agreement of the early church was characterized by the Greek word katholikos, which meant "according to the whole." The English term was "catholic," and it meant the true church as accepted by genuine followers of Christ. Outside the catholic church were sects that denied important elements of truth: Gnostics, Ebionites, Montanists, Arians, Pelagians, and others. These were considered "unorthodox" (not accepting the right doctrines). The two terms

CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Nicene Creed As approved in amplified form at the Council of Constantinople (381), it is the profession of the christian Faith common to the Catholic Church, to all the Eastern Churches separated from Rome, and to most of the Protestant denominations. http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/11049a.htm

Home Encyclopedia Summa Fathers ... N > The Nicene Creed A B C D ... Z The Nicene Creed As approved in amplified form at the Council of Constantinople (381) , it is the profession of the Christian Faith common to the Catholic Church, to all the Eastern Churches separated from Rome, and to most of the Protestant denominations. Soon after the Council of Nicaea new formulas of faith were composed, most of them variations of the Nicene Symbol, to meet new phases of Arianism . There were at least four before the Council of Sardica in 341, and in that council a new form was presented and inserted in the Acts, though not accepted by the council. The Nicene Symbol, however, continued to be the only one in use among the defenders of the Faith. Gradually it came to be recognized as the proper profession of faith for candidates for baptism. Its alteration into the Nicene-Constantinopolitan formula, the one now in use, in usually ascribed to the Council of Constantinople, since the Council of Chalcedon (451), which designated this symbol as "The Creed of the Council of Constantinople of 381" had it twice read and inserted in its Acts. The historians Socrates, Sozomen , and Theodoret do not mention this, although they do record that the bishops who remained at the council after the departure of the Macedonians confirmed the Nicene faith. Hefele (II,9) admits the possibility of our present creed being a condensation of the "Tome" ( Gr.

Welcome to Pray Ealing! Pray Ealing 2003! 26th October - 2nd November at Haven Green Baptist Church Sign up now! In 2001, inspired by the rapidly growing 24-7 prayer initiative, some of the local young people began to envision something similar for Ealing. It wasn't long before they discovered that this was no new vision in the area and many of the local church leaders have been praying for the sort of opportunity that this week brings, separated from any denominational agenda or church politics. A prayer room was organised to run for a week in the heart of Ealing. Our vision is to be welcoming to anyone who desires for God to move and work miracles in our local community, not to be separated by religiosity or ritual, but to find our common ground and move forward together as one church.

About Us PEACE PRAYER SERIES Join us in Davis to pray for peace in April-May 2004. (Learn more) We are Christians who believe that the teachings and life example of Jesus Christ is normative for Christians today. Jesus' central message is proclaiming the kingdom of God. This kingdom is unlike any otherwhere the poor, meek, persecuted, and the least are blessed, while the rich and proud are condemned. Jesus is the servant king, who builds his kingdom by serving others and commands his disciples to do likewise. War, forced capitulation through physical domination, is the antithesis of Jesus' ministry. Therefore, we oppose all wars. Jesus teaches us to love our enemies (Matt 5:43-44), to forgive those who sin against us (Matt 18:21-22), and to deny ourselves, carry our cross, and follow him. (Matt 10:37-38). Jesus' teachings and His life example are so clear that they need no commentary. To follow Jesus is to follow a path of servanthood, rather than domination. We believe that war is immoral. The idea that we can kill, we can choose who will live and who will die, to protect our way of life is not in accordance with Jesus' teachings and life example. The powers of this world use war today, but as Christians our battle is not against flesh and blood, (not against other people) but against these powers (Eph 6:12). As Christians, we do not wage war as the world does (2 Cor 10:3-4).

St George's College Junior School Welcome to St George's College Junior School. This page contains links to all of the pages on our site. The Congregation of Josephites was founded in Belgium in 1817 by Constant Van Crombrugghe, a priest of the Diocese of Gent. In response to the needs of the time, following a period of famine and social and political upheaval, he brought together small groups of men and women who would give a basic religious and practical education to the poor young people of his home town of Geraardsbergen. These two groups developed into the Brothers of St Joseph, later the Josephites, and the Ladies of Mary. In due time both congregations moved into middle-class education, and the Josephites became a congregation of priests and brothers. Having consolidated a base in Belgium with three successful schools, the Josephites founded a school in England, St George's College, in Croydon, in 1869. By 1884 St George's had outgrown its existing facilities, and the Josephites purchased an existing, but ailing, school which had been founded in Woburn Park, Weybridge, some years earlier by Monsignor Lord Petre for the education of the sons of Catholic gentlemen. In the early 1950's the lower forms were separated from the main body of St George's, and two new schools were founded. Barrow Hills, the boarding preparatory school, was located in Longcross and subsequently moved to Witley. It was sold in 1991 to a consortium of parents and continues in existence with a Franciscan Headmaster. Woburn Hill, the day preparatory school was founded in a large house on the College property and moved to the present site in the early 1960's. In 1995, Woburn Hill became known as St George's College Junior School.
